EDITOR'S OBSERVATIONS.
Ye Editor made a brief business
trip to Buxton and some adjacent
towns last week but as he was only
in the other towns but a few hours
we will not mention a report of them.
Buxton, the Negro Athens of the north
and one town that has been so often
written up and often misrepresented
by writers who wish to enlarge our
race shortcomings and minimize our
worthy ones. Well, after all, Buxton
is not the same town as she was Ave
years ago. She has settled down to
a better and, as a rule, a more sub
stantial. thoughtful conservative class
of people. The population will num
ber about 5,000, of which 3,000 are col
ored people, and I can truthfully say
that here live some of the race's most
successful and business men. Here
one can study the race from a view
point that no other large communi
ty offers to tHe'rfisgfo. Here he has
absolute freedom to everything that
any other citizen has. Here you can
see well trained doctors, lawyers
Here you can see the public schools
with mixed teachers, mostly colored,
with a colored principal, Prof. Hicks,
who is on his third year. Here you
call see colored men officers adminis
tering the law. providing the punish
ment and inflicting the penalty, here
you can see colored men building the
buildings, operating the electric plant,
riding in automobiles and carriages
here you can see them farming, here
UCl JUU VCSU OCC tuviu I
you can see them owning amusements,-)^0'-,ast weeK.
parks, "baseball parks and their own
bands. Here we have the church bells
ringing from the colored churches and
the Y. M. C. A., owned and operated
on business basis by colored men, and
many other things too numerous to
mention. In this article I can only
name a few of the leading citizens.
Within the past two months, Mr. B. C.
Buxton, who built the town and man
aged the Consolidated Coal Company
so successfully and efficiently, resign
ed and Mr. J. H. Baysour of Illinois,
formerly of Mahaska county, has been
selected to manage this great com
pany. He seems to be a good man
and from age and experience we hope
will be successful. Mr. Hobe Arm
strong, who still owns the meat mar
ket and his son Charles conducts the
retail business, which amounts to
many thousands of dollars. The Per
kins hotel is the only hotel for the
town, ii is doing well. Mr. W. L.
Pirkins. mother and brothers, are the
manager. They are fine people. The
Jeffers brothers are still at the old
stand running the two restaurants.
They are courteous and the largest
trade of any other house. The Stand
ard Drug Co., owned by Mr. I. H.
Hutchinson in South Buxton, Is a very
swell, up-to-date drug company, with
the only colored lady pharmacist prac
ticing in Iowa, Mrs. Hutchinson, a
graduate of Highland Park college.
The Mercantile Grocery Co. is one of
tbe new organizations which has been
doing business for two years with Mr.
A.-J. Brookins. as manager. He is a
hustler and a good business man he
has a young lady clferk in the store.
Mr. L. J. Lucas runs the flrst-class
bakery in South Buxton. He employs
four bakers besides himself, but it
keeps him busy delivering He has
modern ovens and paraphernalia and
his cakes and pies are much sought
after. His sons and daughter assist
him. He formerly lived in Grlnnell
and we hope for him success. Mrs.
\V. B. Rhodes/ runs a restaurant in
the South end, also Sam Jackson, has
a short order and restaurant. The
London Bros, are succeeding in music,
Insurance and stoves, e^c. The Miss
Susie London Is operating the milli
nery store. This firm is a strong, good
business firm. Mr. Frank J. Cooper
has one of the oldest drug stores in
the city. He came over with the City
of Buxton. He enjoys a lucrative trade.
He is a whole-souled, liberal man and
is one of the wealthiest colored men
in town. The surprising thing, he Is
still a single man. Mr. Callaway is
still making clothes for the boys. Mr.
Crownberry has a tailor shop and
seems to be doing well. Andy Neely
is. operating a grocery store /and- is do
ing well. The pool hall is run by
,Mr. —. The cigar factory
is still moving on under the control
of Frank Roberts, who is an expert
cigar maker. He makes some excel
lent brands. Ruben (jdines and his
wife have purchased their son, Ruben,
Jr., a fine two-seated automobile, the
first colored man to buy a machine to
our knowledge in Iowa. The yare put
ting a hot water furnace in their
beautiful home. They own some val
uable property and are well off. Mr.
Goins is in the tonsorial parlors, also
the Big 4 shop.

•When we first began our wonderful work of growing all kinds,, all qualitiefc
all lengths,- and all conditions of hair, even to the growing of hair on
places of the head, many *ersi*iB scorned the idea that such a thing was pos^3
ble but we have grown the hair for hundreds rapidly achieving- success. Tb».,
proof of tbe value of our work is tbat we are being imitated) and largely
persons whose own hair we have aetually grown and the further fact that they--,
have very frequently mentioned us when trying to sell their gooda (saying tht'a
theirs is the same or "just as good") or referred to- PORO. We advise you ts^f
use only VORO Hair Grower, (the oldest and beat of its- kiiad.) 'See that (li^4
name PORO is on every box, not genuine without it. Prepared only by
A. M. POtfE.
Beware of imitations.
